"It's 'staycation': That is, staying at home. The term was coined in 2008 in the United States, in the midst of the economic crisis, and was then almost abandoned or overlooked. It resurfaced last year and this year, and it means taking a vacation while staying at home, visiting one's city or surrounding places as a kind of tourist visiting one's city or surrounding places as a kind of tourist."

"Here it was a bit of a jungle. In short, it was a homeless encampment, and it was not a nice place to see. Then, at some point, it was cleaned up and they made this thing which, for us Romans, is a novelty, but in all European capitals, where there is a river, these beaches already exist."
